    How to Talk About 100% Responsibility with Jonathan Basker

    If you’ve ever asked yourself, “How do I stop feeling like life is happening to me?” — this episode is for you. In today’s conversation, Krista sits down with executive coach Jonathan Basker of the Conscious Leadership Group to explore what it really means to take 100% responsibility for your life — especially when the temptation to collapse into blame, resentment, or burnout feels irresistible. Jonathan is known for helping leaders drop the victim mindset and step into grounded, heart-led presence. Before becoming a coach, he led strategy inside high-growth startups like Etsy and Betaworks, learning firsthand that surface-level leadership doesn’t survive real storms. But his insights don’t just come from boardrooms — they come from years of inner work, facing his own patterns, and choosing self-acceptance over self-attack. Together, Krista and Jonathan unpack: How to recognize when you’re stuck in victimhood — and shift into self-ownership Why awareness is the first step to transformation (and why most people skip it) The subtle ways we self-sabotage when trying to “fix” ourselves Why acceptance isn’t resignation — it’s the doorway to change How to break free from repeating the same painful patterns The role of love and self-compassion in real, lasting leadership This conversation is for anyone ready to stop outsourcing their power, stop looping in the same old stories, and start leading — in work, in relationships, and in life — from the inside out.

    If you’ve ever wondered how to turn your hardest truths into your greatest power — this episode is for you. In today’s conversation, Krista sits down with brand strategist and truth-teller Kaitlyn Barclay to explore how owning our stories can transform not just our personal lives, but our professional impact. From founding purpose-driven creative agency Scout Lab to courageously sharing her own experiences of survival, Kaitlyn has built a career on the radical power of honesty. Together, Krista and Kaitlyn unpack: ⟶ How telling the truth—personally and professionally—becomes a catalyst for freedom ⟶ The lifelong ripple effects of speaking out against injustice ⟶ Why great brands (and great lives) are built on clarity, values, and courage ⟶ How to cultivate confidence by claiming your story instead of hiding from it ⟶ The science of brand resonance — and how it applies to your personal identity ⟶ What it means to be “the hero of your own story” and why that matters more than ever This episode is a permission slip: to tell the truth, to take up space, and to remember that your story—no matter how uncomfortable—is a source of strength, not shame.

    How to Talk About Relational Polarity with Miriam Adler

    In today’s conversation, Krista sits down with relational polarity expert Miriam Adler to explore why so many of us lose ourselves in love, chase success at the cost of well-being, and struggle to feel safe inside our own bodies — and how rediscovering inner polarity can change everything. Miriam has guided thousands through deep relational healing, helping people reclaim their sense of self, understand their emotional patterns, and build healthier, more connected relationships. In this episode, she shares her personal story of hitting rock bottom and the pivotal decision to walk a radically different path — from high-fashion modeling to guiding global healing work. Together, Krista and Miriam unpack: ⟶ Why heartbreak and rock bottoms can be the greatest doorways to transformation ⟶ The misunderstood truth about polarity — and why it’s not about gender or labels ⟶ How the “mother wound” and “father wound” unconsciously shape our adult relationships ⟶ The root cause of relationship struggles: self-abandonment and lack of responsibility ⟶ How mastering inner polarity creates natural confidence, safety, and openness ⟶ Why modern culture glorifies burnout and overdrive — and how to reclaim your vitality ⟶ The role of polarity in workplaces, leadership, and restoring feminine power This episode is a reminder that safety isn’t something we outsource — it’s something we cultivate within. It’s an invitation to move from performance to presence, from expectation to authentic connection, and from burnout to grounded confidence.

    How to Talk About Empathy with Michael Ventura

    If you’ve ever felt like empathy is a liability in today’s world — or questioned whether it still has a place in leadership, activism, or even daily life — this episode is for you. In today’s conversation, Krista sits down with Michael Ventura, author of Applied Empathy and founder of Sub Rosa, to explore how empathy, when practiced rigorously and responsibly, becomes a transformative tool for systems change, leadership, and personal clarity. Michael has brought empathy training into spaces as varied as West Point, the United Nations, and Fortune 100 boardrooms. But this conversation goes far beyond titles — it’s a deep dive into how we relate to ourselves, each other, and the world around us when we learn to see without projecting and listen without absorbing. Together, Krista and Michael unpack: Why empathy is a powerful leadership tool — not a soft skill How to practice empathy without taking on others’ emotions The dangers of projection (and how to stop doing it) Why cognitive empathy is being weaponized — and what to do about it What it means to find your purpose not in one North Star, but in a personal constellation This episode is an invitation to reclaim empathy — as a strength, as a responsibility, and as a way of creating more meaningful connection.

    How to Talk About Pleasure with Regena Thomashauer

    If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your sensuality, unsure how to claim your power, or silenced by shame — this episode is for you. In today’s conversation, Krista sits down with legendary teacher and bestselling author Regena Thomashauer — aka Mama Gena — to explore the radical act of reclaiming pleasure as a source of feminine power. Together, they trace the path from repression to radiance, and how the erotic is not just a personal awakening, but a cultural one. Regena is the founder of the School of Womanly Arts and the author of Pussy: A Reclamation, a book that’s become a modern-day manifesto for feminine sovereignty. Through her own story — from growing up in a house of violence to teaching at a sex commune to guiding thousands of women back to their bodies — she reveals the revolutionary power of sensual embodiment. Together, Krista and Regena unpack: Why owning your pussy means owning your life How shame is inherited — and how it can be transmuted through pleasure The cost of 'manning up' and the freedom of reclaiming the feminine How to awaken the body as a source of truth, guidance, and divinity Why naming your body is the first step to liberating your voice This episode is a permission slip — to feel more, to speak louder, to take up space, and to come home to the parts of yourself that were never meant to be hidden. It’s a call to let it rip — and remember that pleasure isn’t indulgent. It’s sacred.

    How to Talk About Impact with Mara Abrams

    If you’ve ever asked yourself, “How can my life make a greater impact?” — this episode is for you. In today’s conversation, Krista sits down with Mara Abrams, founder of Numara Impact, to explore the pressure we feel to prove our worth by living a life that leaves an impact and how that pressure often comes not from purpose itself, but from shame. Mara is no stranger to impact. She’s shaped national policy, supported global youth movements, and advised world leaders on how to center empathy in systems change. But her most profound insights don’t come from her résumé: they come from her personal reckoning with burnout, ego, and what it really means to live a meaningful life. Together, Krista and Mara unpack: The hidden link between shame and high-achieving Why burnout is often a loss of purpose, not just a lack of rest How to separate your self-worth from your output The quiet power of listening — to yourself and to others Why the most radical form of impact might be… tenderness This episode is a love letter to anyone who’s sprinting toward impact but feels like they haven’t arrived. It’s a reminder that your worth isn’t something you prove. It’s something you remember and practice daily by living from your personal purpose.  For more from this episode and to join the conversation, head to: → Substack → Instagram: @allofitpod → TikTok: @allofitpodcast

    How to Talk About Shame with Patrycja Slawuta: Part 2

    Patrycja Slawuta, Ph.D., has spent a lifetime studying what most of us spend our lives trying not to touch — shame. As a behavior scientist and expert in collective shame, her work explores the holy trinity of taboo — shame, secrecy, and silence — and how invisible shame shapes every part of our lives, from family systems to finances. In part two of this conversation, we move beyond financial shame into the deeper architecture of human belonging: we explore the roots of shame, its silent inheritance, and how it fractures our sense of self long before we find the language to name it. We talk about how shame shapes belonging, morality, and the stories we tell — or never tell — about who we are. Together we explore how hope is born from adversity, why vulnerability is the beginning of true power, and what it really means to live a life of nothing left unsaid. New episodes every week.

    How to Talk About Shame with Patrycja Slawuta: Part 1

    Patrycja Slawuta, Ph.D., has spent a lifetime studying what most of us spend our lives trying not to touch — shame. As a behavior scientist and expert in collective shame, her work explores the holy trinity of taboo — shame, secrecy, and silence — and how invisible shame shapes every part of our lives, including one of its most taboo arenas: money. In part one of this two-part conversation, we follow the thread of shame into our financial lives — how money becomes a silent biography, shaped by unspoken rules, intergenerational scars, and the stories we tell (or never tell) about what we deserve. At its heart, this episode asks: how do we unlearn the shame we inherited around wealth, work, and worth — and what new story might we write if we could? New episodes every week.
